Apparently her mother, Janice Acquista, was recently arrested in North Carolina for nothing more than a $10 balance for an overdue library book. 



But the Southside With You star stressed that never should such a fee resulted in an arrest.




Despite numerous questions from fans and the Johnston County Sheriff’s Office telling Page Six that Acquista was arrested for a bad check, Sumpter continued to stand by her story that her mother was arrested for a measly ten bucks. 





But the real tea is that according to the actress, her mom returned the book a while back, but it was never put into the system, says CBS Philly.


Sigh.
